We’re asking for forgiveness for everything: for things we did, things we’ll do, things we conceal, things we reveal, things we do over-excessively, and for things we don’t even know exist within us (e.g. the disease of arrogance that lurks amongst most of us, but most of us are sadly unaware of)…Ya Salaam!

Oh Allah! Forgive me for what I have done in the past
and for what I will do in the future
and for what I have committed in secret
and for what I have committed in public
and for what I have exceeded all bounds
and for what is in me that you are more knowledgeable of than myself

there is no deity/object/thing worthy of any act of worship except You
